Cat Health

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a disease common in both cats and people. If your veterinarian has determined that kidney damage has been ongoing for more than 3 months, it is considered chronic and will require close monitoring and intervention.

Although we do not currently have a cure for kidney disease there are many treatments used to alleviate the signs and symptoms of CKD. Dietary therapy and medications can be very helpful in maintaining a good long quality of life for these cats especially when it is caught early.

Virtual care is becoming an important facet of the future of veterinary care that is predicted to stay even after the pandemic. With virtual veterinary care, you can get sound advice from trusted veterinary professionals without leaving your home and stressing out your cat.
